Ingredients

Scale

Juices

  • 100ml cranberry juice
  • ½ orange, juiced (approximately 30ml)
  • 80ml sparkling white grape juice

Herbs & Garnishes

  • 6 fresh sage leaves

Others

  • Around 4 ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Prepare the glasses: Pour 50ml of cranberry juice into each of two champagne coupe or wine glasses.
  2. Add orange juice and stir: Divide the freshly squeezed orange juice evenly between the two glasses, then stir gently to combine the juices.
  3. Add sage leaves and ice: Place 3 fresh sage leaves and 1-2 ice cubes into each glass to infuse a subtle herbal flavor and chill the drink.
  4. Top with sparkling grape juice: Carefully top each glass with 40ml of sparkling white grape juice to add effervescence and a sweet finish.
  5. Serve immediately: Give a gentle stir if desired, then serve your Cranberry Spritz right away, enjoying the vibrant and refreshing flavors.

Notes

  • Use fresh orange juice for the best flavor; bottled juice will alter the taste.
  • Adding sage leaves directly into the glass adds an aromatic touch, but they can be muddled slightly for a stronger herbal note.
  • Adjust the amount of sparkling white grape juice to your taste preference for sweetness and fizziness.
  • Serve in chilled glasses for an extra cool experience.
  • This recipe is naturally vegan and gluten-free.
